IMPROVED STOVE-LANTERN.

To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, DAVID L. JAQUES, of Hudson, in the county of Lenawee and State of Michigan, have invented a new and Improved Stove-Lantern for the double purpose of light and heat; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description of the construction and operation of the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, making a part of the specification, in which- Figure 1 is a perspective view; Fig. 2 cross vertical section.

In the several figures similar characters refer to like parts.

A Aindieates thefront andtwo sides of lantern, on which the glass 1) b and doorgare adjusted, together with part a of plate 0 c c and partition .sand bottom R forms the casein which lamp F is adjusted.

c c 0 indicates the footplate constructed in two parts so that e will fold back on parta, said foot-plate c c c to be covered with carpet or cloth fastened to plate 0 c c with small wires passing through apertures of said plate 0 c c.

H indicates the heat guide, which extends longitudinally with lamp-case and over the lamp F, the lower side being of a concave shape. The left edge descends sufficiently t to make the lamp-heat rise to the light and I pass through the apertures of partition s into chamber at of part c of footplate c c c, thence through apertures T T of part0 of footplate 0 c c, the corners of left side of said heat-guide to be bent or curved down and toward partition 5, from w to a", as indicated by dotted lines, to prevent heat and smoke of the lamp affecting the glass.

f indicates the bottom of chamber m, made of tin to reflect the heat against part 6 when adjusted to partition 8, and forms a covering when said movable part c of plate 0 c c is folded on part a; said bottom f and sides D of movable pat t c of plate 0 c c to be attached to part c of plate 0 c c and made adjustable to partition 8 when let out or unfolded.

Line j represents the difference between the horizontal of the lantern and the movable and and adjustable footplate e of c c 0. Thus it will be seen that the desired position of the foot will lower 1) to l, and raise 0 to n, or as much as desired, so that part c of plate 0 c 0, being higher than bottom of lantern, willmake it adjustable to the desired position of the foot.

Thus it will be noted that the deviceI have set forth is for a twofold purpose, to wit: For a lantern, by folding, sliding, or adjusting part c of plate 0 o c to a to contract the entire arrangement into as small a compass as possi ble; by unfolding, sliding, or letting out said part 6 of plate 0 c c to adjust with partition s,in combination with heat-guide H and apertures in partition 8, chamber at, and apertures T T in plate e of c c a, through which the heat passes out from lamp F, being turned to that direction by said heat-guide H for the purpose of warming the body as well as the foot, as indicated. The aperture through partition 8 will disperse the heat the whole length of said partition s and prevent sparks and flame from passing through to apertures in part c of plate 0 c 0, making it fire proof, having all the capacities for a lantern and warming the feet and body, and being adjustable to the foot at any position desired.

Having thus described my invention, what I claim, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is

The whole device, substantially as set forth.
